"This product can only be used with both the Framework Laptop 13 Pro Bottom Cover and Framework Laptop 13 Pro Input Cover."
I applaud that the mainboard and keyboard are backwards compatible, but I don't think the pro is quite as backwards compatible as some are thinking
- josephsw 5mo agoThey actually call out this specific incompatibility in the video here (at 2m44s): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JSxgCEpkiKM&t=2m44s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JSxgCEpkiKM&t=2m44s Mainly just a trade-off because of because of the bigger battery (but it sounds like they'll sell you the bottom chassis pieces as well).
- cbsmith 5mo agoYup. Sounds right. Interestingly though, you can use the new input cover with the older frames.
